INDIA – Despite India Being the traditional favourites at Miss United Continents and always finishing in the winning court haven’t managed to bag the crown, but this year Indian pageant fans can have their share of joy to celebrate the victory as they have stunning Lopamudra Raut Representing their Diverse country. Lopamudra has won Best National Costume Award, she has made global fans and is making waves all through the pageant. Her wardrobes, styling, energy, and charm that she carries with her in each appearances has clearly made a strong statement that, “India is here to win”. If She wins the crown she will be the first ever Non Latin American Winner of Miss United Continents crown.

MEXICO – While India is putting in her best to grab the crown, Miss Mexico is certainly making it a tough task for others. Cynthia has won Dental award and also a sponsors award. She has the experience of competing at Major Pageants and she is using it all to make it count. She is also amongst the favourites to win Miss Photogenic award along with India and Philippines.

Colombia – While India and Mexico are giving a head to head fight to each other the gorgeous Ana María is slowly making her presence felt. With a bang on Body and stunning features she will be difficult to ignore during the finale.

PHILIPPINES – Jeslyn is another Asian stunner who is expected to contribute in making this edition of United Continents memorable for Asian Domination. She is stunning and has her eyes set on the crown. Don’t be surprised if she surpasses your expectations during the finale.
BRAZIL is beautiful, but the she is feeling the pressure of a back to back win. She is very much in contention to make it to the court of winners. PANAMA is a stunner, she is a bit overshadowed by fellow Latin Americans from Mexico and Colombia but has potential to Upset the frontrunner and take home the crown. Keep a close eye on Panama during the finale. Gorgeous ladies from SOUTH AFRICA, DENMARK and PUERTO RICO completes our TOP 10.

Who do you think will take home the crown of Miss United Continents 2016?

First official Picks for Miss United Continents 2016

Miss United Continents is one of the fastest growing pageants. This is the fourth edition of the pageant based in Ecuador since it was changed from Miss United Americas to Miss United Continents. Nathalia Lago of Brazil will Crown her successor on September 24th in Guayaquil, Ecuador.
Analysing the candidates, We believe the competition is very fierce this year and we might see an Non Latin American girl take the crown for the first time. Asians, Europeans and Africans are showing deep interest in winning this pageant and this can be a rewarding year for them, India’s Lopamudra Raut and Ukraine’s Marina Demitska can easily be the flag bearer for Asian and Europeans respectively. However,  Brazilian Taynara will give her best to claim a back to back victory for Brazil. Chances for Panama and Puerto Rico can also not be ignored.
At this point of time India is leading our list followed by Panama and Brazil is on the third spot. Puerto Rico, Ukraine and Dominican Republic complete the TOP06 and Philippines, Colombia, South Africa and United Kingdom completes our TOP 10 list of favourites for Miss United Continents 2016.

01) Congratulations Mudit on winning Rubaru Mister International India Title. Since your victory Pageant Fanatics are eager to know more about you,  Tell Us Something about Yourself.

Mudit – I am a complete Delhite – born and brought up here. A graduate in advertising from Delhi university, I have always been a people’s person. My passion for modelling soon had me handling the fashion society of my college. This is when I won my first title, Mr. Delhi Times, organised by the The Times of India. There was no looking back from there. I started working as a model in Delhi and later shifted my base to Mumbai where I took up assignments for ads and prints. I was introduced to Rubaru Mr. India pageant through a friend and I was determined to win it.I am a fitness freak and a I love to travel.

02) How Does it feel to be the Winner of Rubaru Mister International India ?

05) What inspired you to Join Rubaru Mr India?

Mudit – The industry had always fascinated me and I started with part time modelling during my college days. What started as a hobby back then, soon became my passion and priority. Joining a credible platform such as Rubaru had been my ultimate goal to give a boost to my career.

Mudit – The cause is personally  very close to my heart and resonates with me.  I feel that we are in an era where women are at par with men hence there is an acute need to tackle gender inequality as the key driver of violence against women. The society needs to build preventive measures in order to stop violence against women. The first step is to identify and address instead of letting go and it’s a very touchy subject people don’t want to talk about. It is imperative to educate the youth of the nation and promote gender equality. What’s missing is leadership. We need to create leaders who can stand up and raise their voice against heinous acts. when we talk about violence against women, more often than never these act of violence starts with a first hand experience at one’s own home. So the change needs to start from home. As men, we should respect our women and treat them nicely.

Mudit – I appreciate the pool of talent that we have in our country and I drive my inspiration from each one of them. They surely motivate me and their experience have helped me improve and better myself.

08) Being a Mr India, you will always be looked up for your fashion quotient and your Fashion sense will be under strict scrutiny, What Does fashion Means to you ?

Mudit – Fashion is all about expressing one’s true self. It speaks a thousands words, tells about one’s choices, priorities etc. While for some people it is overrated, but for me it’s about my identity.

Q) Its been More than a year now since you won the title of Mr South Africa. How far the life has changed in the course of last one year??

Armand –  MY life has changed drastically since the moment I was announced as Mr. South Africa 2015 / 2016 in January 2015. Before Mr. South Africa; I was only just still a boy, but changed into a man after Mr. South Africa! This journey has taught me a lot about myself, opened my eyes, made me realise who I actually am and to what I am capable of achieving. I have surprised myself a lot since I was chosen as Mr. South Africa. The life lessons I have learned as Mr. South Africa will forever stay with me.

Q) Winning a title also brings the responsibility of being an ambassador of the country and Representing the nation. How does this helped you grow?

Armand – There is a lot of pressure on one winning such a title. Soon after winning this prestigious title, I have realised the weight such a title carries. I strive to make my country proud and this pressure has helped me grow into being the best possible representative I could ever be.

Q) Recently South Africa has seen very prominent Pageant Icons, does this add pressure on you or motivates you as you will be the next to represent South Africa?

Armand – It motivates and add pressure on me as well. Both Rolene and Liesl has represented our country incredibly well at Miss World and I aspire to represent our country and continent just as well. South Africa has recently also won the Mrs. World title, so the one outstanding title for us to win is now the Mr. World title. I will be using all of their advise when I leave for Mr. World later this year.

Q) Mr world competition focuses on various aspects in form of its fast-track challenges, what are the primary areas of focus for you?

Armand – I will certainly give my ALL in every challenge and prepare myself the best I possibly can. The main focus throughout my year as Mr. South Africa has been Charity Segment, dedicating most of my time to charity Work Projects I am involved in.

Armand – Education has been my primary focus when doing charity work throughout the past year and I have worked very closely with an organisation called DeskBags, handing bags (which can also be used as a desk) to schoolchildren without school desks. There is around 3 million children in South Africa going school without a desk.

Q) You are managing your work, modelling assignments and Training sessions quite well and follow a tight schedule, How do you manage time for all these activities?

Armand – The life around being a model brings variation to my life. Seeing that I started spending more time practicing this year as a Candidate Attorney, I enjoy doing everything that goes with being a model from time to time. I spend a lot of my time preparing for Mr. World; which means I go to gym at 5am every morning, work throughout the day and also sometimes do more training in the afternoons or attend events at night. Over weekends I spend as much time as possible with my friends and family.

Q) By now a few candidates for Mr World 2016 have been announced, Who do you think is going to be your toughest competitor in Cardiff?

Armand – A. At this stage I have only followed two contestants, India (Rohit Khandelwal) and Philippines (Sam Ajdani) very closely and I can honestly say that they are both great ambassadors for their countries. I believe these two representatives will be my strongest competition in Wales later this year.

Q) Few words for the fans and people who look upto you as a source of inspiration.

Armand –  We all face difficulties in our lives at some stage, do not allow for any difficulty / setback to make you think less of yourself and doubt your abilities.

WHAT MAKES MISS GRAND INTERNATIONAL (MGI) A MAJOR PAGEANT ?

Only in its fourth year of existence, Miss Grand International is now one of the Most awaited and  anticipated Extravaganza. What contributes in Making it a grand annual event are rather small but strategic things nicely blended together to create an appealing new Pageant. Decent Format, Exiting Activities and will to bring every Major / Minor Event of the Pageant to the eyes of people, Keeping them aware of what’s going on is the key that clicked for Miss Grand International perfectly well.

544115_631703926852607_897867088_n1

From a Well organized Welcome  Event to the kaleidoscopic Finale through the series of enticing events including Pool side parade, Dinners, Purposeful visits across Thailand. Open air NatCos show and fun filled preliminary show, Everything is so Lavish, Regal and Rich that as a fan you can not shift your attention but stay interested specially when you can witness all the action ( not all pageants provides  live feed or streaming to keep track of ongoing activities) sitting at your home watching shoots and Shows.

 

The overwhelming support and encouragement that delegates receives in THAILAND irrespective of their nationality during the course of pageant is certainly worthy of applauses. This also rules out any allegations arising due to pageant venue being Thailand all the time. THAILAND is a wonderful HOST!!!!

The allegations of all delegates not being national titleholders but handpicked candidate is also not enough to put down a three years old organization that has successfully managed to bring together great bunch of Girls in a pageant with amazing production and negligible cases discontent arising out of an absurd inclusion / exclusion from the cuts.

What could be a welcome change is addition of Individual Projects done by candidates under the Motto “STOP THE WAR” and  “Promotion of Peace and Love” spreading awareness against Evils like Domestic violence, Bullying, Violence against Women, Children, animals, LGBT and Tribal communities in their Homeland. However, Miss Grand organization is working closely with UNHCR for the rehabilitation of Refugees. The addition of National level project will add a new dimension  to their overall goals and will involve each and every candidate in this noble cause.

It seems, The Able and Thoughtful administration willing to bring together the best ideas and turning it into reality, The queens Spreading the lessons of Love and peace across the globe and the fans makes Miss Grand International a Major Pageant.
